Could you take a look at the physics too? I like that they provide a challenge but as of 1.35 I go into a self-propelling spiral of death more often then not. Anyway thanks for your great work.

I’ve tried looking it up and I didn’t find anyone else who has this problem, or at least they’re not aware of it, but here we go:
I’ve found an error with the ATS version of this mod (and possibly the other season mods, but I haven’t tested them yet). The problem is, is that if I do a medium to long haul, the distance counting messes up. What I mean, is that for example, I did a job from Kennewick to Elko, which would be around 600+ miles. However, when I complete the delivery, the results screen shows a lot less than that, like 450 miles instead of the actual lenght. This wouldn’t be a problem, if it wouldn’t mess up other things, like the XP you get for the distance and the amount of fuel you have. I first encountered this error in 1.34, when I used the 1.33 compatible version of the mod. At the time, I thought it was because it was for an older version (even though people said that it works perfectly in the then recent game), but since the newest mod version IS for 1.35, I don’t know anymore.
Could you look into this, to see what could cause this? Thanks.

I don’t see how on earth this mod or any of my season mods would have any effect on distance being recorded in the game, all these types of mods do is change the weather and graphic textures. Perhaps only an economy mod or something like that might have an effect on distances but I’m not even sure about that, might be another mod or just a game bug.

I have seen it with people happening, seems to be more related to VTC if one uses VTC (if you do not know what it is then you do not use it) or game itself then that it is a mod causing this.
I would suggest looking on scs forum and post your issue there or look for it, plenty people who can help determine if it might be a bug of the game and if so where it needs to be reported.
The people i heard about they also have it on a profile without mods.

i have downloaded both mods and only the physics mod show in the mod manager and i don’t know what would be causing it

If it’s not showing in Mod Manager then there may have been an issue with the download, you might have to try again, the file should be called frosty_ats_v2_6.scs and it’s around 600mb in size.

It would only really apply to some parts of Washington and Oregon, most of the rest of the map is desert, I think I’ll wait until some more northerly states have been added.

There are quite a few places in Utah that get heavy snow in winter, but you’re right, once SCS starts with Montana, the Dakota’s and the mid-west states like Indiana, Ohio, Wisconsin. They may do Colorado next year though, and that is a Rocky Mountain state that gets heaps of snow.

Antone any idea if SCS are planning to go North into Alaska and Canada ?

It will take a very long time for SCS to start Canada, and not much chance of Alaska being done at least until 2030. However, ProMods has a small team that has started to map British Columbia, as part of ProMods Canada. No idea how long it will take them, but at least it will be able to be accessed from the Washington DLC. Considering that their first mod, which was ProMods “Scandinavia” took two guys 8 months to map Sweden, Norway, and a little bit of Finland in 2013, and British Columbia mapping started a month or two ago, so the first part of ProMods Canada, British Columbia may be finished by March or April of 2020.
